Nationally, among large companies, USAA ranked No. 8. Among all
companies, USAA ranked No. 40, and kept its spot in the top 50 employers
in the country for the fourth straight year.

USAA has had operations in the Phoenix area since 2001 and currently
employs approximately 3,000 people at its Norterra Drive campus in North
Phoenix.

The list, released yesterday, is based on evaluation of results of
independent employee surveys and detailed audits of company policies,
practices, programs and overall culture.

In its profile
of USAA, FORTUNE lauded USAA as having “one of the richest
benefit programs around,” citing a variety of financial benefits, such
as annual bonuses and 100% matching of 401(k) contributions up to 8%.
The profile also highlighted the many amenities available to employees
at the financial provider’s home office campus in San Antonio.

“Our employees don’t just come to work every day to do a job,” explained
USAA CEO Joe Robles, Maj. Gen., USA (Ret.). “They’re on a noble mission
– to give their very best to military families who have served or are
serving our country. What makes USAA one of the nation’s best places to
work are the people we serve and the employees who are focused on
helping to facilitate their financial security.”

FORTUNE partners with the Great Place to Work Institute to
produce the 100 Best Companies to Work For® list.
Two-thirds of a company's score is based on the results of the
Institute's Trust Index survey, which is sent to a random sample of
employees from each company. The survey asks questions related to
employees’ attitudes about management's credibility, their own job
satisfaction and camaraderie in the workplace. The other third of the
scoring is based on the company's responses to the Institute's Culture
Audit, which includes detailed questions about benefit programs and a
series of open-ended questions about hiring, communication and culture.

USAA continues to enjoy similar success in other “best of” lists,
including:

Three straight years ranked No. 1 on Computerworld magazine’s
2012 “Best Places to Work in IT.”

No. 1 on the current G.I. Jobs magazine’s list of
military-friendly employers.

No. 1 on the current Military Spouse magazine’s list of
military spouse-friendly employers.

Top 25 on the current LATINA Style 50 list of the best
employers for Latinas.

USAA employs more than 24,000 people and has a variety of career
opportunities in Phoenix and locations around the country. Last year,
more than 25 percent of new hires joined USAA with military experience
or as a military spouse. Opportunities are listed at USAA’s online Career
Center.
